Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge #50

Welcome Mariella

Congratulations to Dave and Suzie who welcomed Mariella Zoe Jane Knox Klauber into the world! Phew, the name is nearly as long as it took me to create this card!

When I need to make a card, it's great to look at the sketch challenges on-line. It really helps when you've got a layout to follow. I thought Karen Giron's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge was just right for what I had in mind. I was wanting to use a Sweet Treat Cup to make a baby rattle and I filled it with Silver Cachous from my pantry and SU Light Pink Chunky Sprinkles (on special in the Inventory Clearance Sale).

So far I've used the Sweet Treat Cups as a snow globe, gumball machine and now, as a rattle. I'm looking forward to trying some other ideas. They go beautifully with the new 'Something Sweet' Stamp Set that is new in the current Summer Mini Catalogue (page 9)
